Top 5 Beginner Jeep Mods

There are many companies that make lift kits and they come in many different configurations. Always do your research to ensure you are getting the most complete jeep lift kit as possible. 2" budget boost coil lift kits are very popular with new coil suspension Jeep owners which allows larger tire upgrade.

Long travel shocks will help you find the sweet spot in your suspension and allow better articulation and suspension cycling. The last thing you want is your shocks limiting your suspension droop or up travel. If this is the case you will surely find yourself with a bent shock or torn out shock mount.

Offroading requires traction, lots of traction. Although nothing will compensate for driver skill, lockers will help you get over and through harder spots in a controlled chaos manner. If you've ever wheeled a Jeep with locked axles you will never want to go back to an open diff.

Installing larger tires for offroading unfortunately has the effect of robbing power which in turn reduces crawl ratio and most importantly creates excessive wear and tear on other components like clutches and auto transmissions. Installing new higher numerical ring and pinion will give you power back and increase crawl ratios.
